mia's mARTch mARTch 24

Mia was on the train back home from Hogwarts thinking about her first year and though she was excited for her next year she was also excited to see her little sister again. She grabbed her trunk as she felt the train screeching to a stop. She slipped through the crowd of people and started to search. After a while she found her parents and sister. She embraced them all and they headed back to their car. Mia looked at the car a little different than she usually did. It seemed so... different now that she had been to Hogwarts. She got in and her sister started playing on her tablet. It again seemed like so much was diffrent. When she was at Hogwarts they would use brooms and play games like, wizard chess. She decided that summer she would spend as much time with her family as possible and not on the technology.

In the realm where self-love reigns,
Where solitude does not equate to pains.
A heart that's full, needing no other,
A soul content, not seeking another.

Love, they say, is all you need,
But in my heart, a different creed.
For love of self is love indeed,
A love that plants a sturdy seed.

I walk alone, yet not in sorrow,
For I have dreams of each tomorrow.
In my own company, I find delight,
In the silence of the night.

I need not love to fill a void,
My spirit, by itself, is overjoyed.
In the mirror, I find my friend,
A love that's true, till the very end.

So here I stand, in my own light,
A beacon glowing in the night.
I need not love, for I am whole,
A solitary, contented soul.
